I’m an ophthalmologist and photographer whose work has evolved through years of movement across remote landscapes, mountain environments, and communities in more than ninety-five countries. From early on, travel and photography became deeply connected for me through remote villages, high mountain passes, cataract outreach clinics in places like Nepal and India, and unfamiliar environments far removed from routine life.

Over time, carrying a camera became less about documenting a place and more about learning how to pay closer attention to it. Experiences working alongside cataract outreach programs ultimately led me toward a career in ophthalmology and eye surgery, while photography became a parallel way of understanding light, perception, and the way we experience the world around us. The two practices gradually became inseparable — one centered on restoring vision, the other on observing the world more carefully.
